Ruixin International Holdings Limited provided earnings guidance for the six months ended 30 June 2019. The group is expected to report an estimated loss of around HKD 36.5 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019 (the reporting period), as compared with the loss of approximately HKD 30.5 million for the six months ended 30 June 2018 (the corresponding period). The increase in loss for the reporting period was mainly due to, among others, the increase in the operating loss for the electronic products business, which is partly offset by the decrease in imputed interest expenses on convertible notes. The increase in the operating loss for the electronic products business in the Reporting Period was mainly due to, among others, the drop in revenue amid the uncertainties arising from the continuation and escalation of the trade war, the decrease in manufacturing and operating expenses not in the same scale as the drop in revenue due to fixed costs, and the increase in maintenance expenses for the production equipment to keep the machines in a compatible condition.
